Just thinking that the wealthiest nation in the world should be able to cough up something better than just $280/week for a working citizen.
There must be plenty of wealth that doesn't reach the common person when over here in Scandinavia I get $1400/month just studying. And if I were to do absolutely nothing besides looking for jobs, I would receive $550 + rent.

You guys should be flooded in cash

do you mean the majority of jobs that require no specialized skills, training, knowledge, or education?

most of the people i know that work in skilled trades, and I'm talking blue collar here - no college, just working hard and paying attention - make at least $20 an hour.




For the most part yes. There are however very few good "blue collar" in my area. Anything approaching $20 an hour is extremely rare.
